American, North American, or is it just USA-American? "America" is a big place and includes fun places e.g. Mexico, Canada, Grenada, Cuba, Brazil, Nicaragua, Colombia, Venezuela, etc.
I don't give a d*mn anyway. How many people do you know that are willing and eager to pay $500 for a cell phone instead of $50? Or $2000 for a computer instead of $300? The USA no longer has the infrastructure or resources or the work-ethic to make the things we used to. That includes cars and trucks, TVs, etc.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
